Syntax and Semantics

Starting 2014, the SynSem research program is an interdisciplinary effort bridging theoretical and computational linguistics, aiming to promote advances in formally oriented syntax and semantics with a view to improved models and methods of language understanding.

On the empirical side, the main focus is on Germanic, Romance and Slavic languages as well as Latin and Greek.

Key areas of interest include the relationship between linguistic code and context, grammar formalisms uniting theoretical and computational interest, and the development and deployment of resources for language processing and linguistics.
